Case Study 1
Question #1
In essence, creation of a clear goal in the health care system is likely to be understood by
majority of the non-targeted group in the society. By setting clear goals there is a chance it will
assist the public to understand the exact picture of the change what it brings in the near future.
The stakeholders who are patients and the local authority should also be well informed of the
change in the hospital (Shamir and Eilam-Shamir). Consequently, they should be engaged
actively in decision making and communication to avoid conflict between the hospital and
stakeholders. The internal challenges that would limit the success of change is the ability to
convince the health care members that there is a problem it is usually hard to convince the board
members that there is a change need in certain areas. Mostly the board will rebuff the idea and
sometimes consider that there is a more real problem which needs to be addressed urgently.
Question #2
When people work as individual their behavior will be limited in addressing approaches
in the hospital while when people work as a group their behavior will depend on the environment
of the work and they can respond both negatively and positively towards curtain changes.
Having a group in a particular organization tends to create hindrances to implementation of
certain changes. Consequently, these in most cases create some barriers to the overall success of
an organization.

Question #3
The nurse leader should make sure that all the staff's member understands the new role
and have tools to carry additionally he or she will make that all staffs that have a negative feeling
are talked to and explained clearly of changes. For the staff's members who have positive
towards implementation, they should be enlightened on areas that needed changes and what is
required.
Question #4
The previous interaction with nurse member can bring failure in essence where the staff's
member has negative attitudes towards evidence-based practice. For instance, in case there is a
suggestion to implement a certain policy in a business and some members of the firm are
opposed to the idea, there is a likelihood that the idea will fail. However, if the members of the
staff are happy with the operation of the company then various implementations are likely to be
done without opposition.
Question #5
Resource requirement is staffed member in hospital required to carry out the task that had
been implemented. Regulatory requirement rules that had been passed by nurse leader towards
the staff's member are required to adhere to it.

Question #3
Nursing care is an arguably complex study most of the nurses usually do more than what
is noticed overboard. They usually do not get the same attention compared to doctors and
surgeons but they are important in the hospital. This is the reason why nurses should earn the
respect of every stakeholder. In essence most hospital without nurses they would have been shut
down (Estrella, Sullivan, Febryani, Vaughn, Villamin and Bowman). Yet since history to date,
most people do not understand the important role the nurse plays in the hospital.
